Basically what i drew from this lecturn is that modernism came about because of the times.
The time being that of the great depression. Money was short so people did not have money to throw away on extravigant things and so the designs change to fit this new life style.
Designs became refined, Stripped back to the bare minimum. Basic forms anf simple geometric structures became popular the structure of the form became exposed.
Also it was at this time the Bauhaus was started and this in turn added in the development of what we now refer to as industrial design.
